I don't get the hate for this one. Sure, Nagel isn't Ellena, and her creations go in a very different direction to his, and I struggle with many of her perfumes elsewhere, but this is a lovely perfume. It opens like eating a crumbly lemon shortbread on a sunny day by an olive grove. It really is evocative of the island it's named after. As it dries down, a sunny vetiver comes through and remains, but unlike, say, the vetiver of the best-forgotten Terre d'Hermès Eau Givrée, this never becomes pickley. It's a truly joyous summertime gem, it's completely unique, and it doesn't amp up the pistachio and become a gourmand snooze fest to join the current proliferation of sweet pistachio dreck. It's a love for me, especially on a day like today when the sun is fully out in early May heralding better weather (finally!).
